London –
Thomas Tuchel replaces Frank Lampard from the Chelsea manager’s chair. Apparently, Tuchel was not the Blues’ first choice.
Frank Lampard has struggled to bring Chelsea this season on Premier League. Lampard failed to live up to the high expectations, which only brought him Chelsea after boxing day and it was getting tougher to win the Premier League.
Frank Lampard is actually still under a contract until 2022. What can he do, the club doesn’t feel at home anymore and the dismissal letter finally comes to Super Frank’s hands.

Thomas Tuchel, who was unemployed last season at PSG, has finally been lined up as Chelsea manager. Tuchel is contracted until 30 June 2022.
Tuchel has a big task. Chelsea must be brought to finish in the top four Premier League Standings and won two titles that are still realistic, namely the FA Cup and the Champions League.
Reporting from Mirror, apparently Thomas Tuchel is not Chelsea’s first choice to replace Frank Lampard. From a reliable source, Chelsea seems to be desperate to hook the RB Leipzig coach, Julian Nagelsmann.
In the last few seasons, Julian Nagelsmann has been able to bring RB Leipzig to become Bayern Munich’s tight competitor in the Bundesliga. Not to mention, RB Leipzig was also able to give a surprise in the Champions League.
Julian Nagelsmann is considered capable of bringing out the best potential of young players such as his former team member Timo Werner and also another German player, Kai Havertz.
Julian Nagelsmann is also 33 years old. Hopefully fresh ideas from him can bring changes for Chelsea.

Unfortunately, Julian Nagelsmann is not interested in Chelsea’s offer. He also still respects his contract at RB Leipzig until 2023.
